Fair Value

The carrying amount of rents and other receivables, restricted cash, escrow deposits, prepaid expenses and other assets, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these amounts. The Company’s interest rate cap agreement and preferred shares derivative liability are the only financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated financial statements.

Our credit facilities, term loan facility, asset-backed securitizations and secured note payable are also financial instruments, which are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as they were estimated by using unobservable inputs. We estimated their fair values by modeling the contractual cash flows required under the instruments and discounting them back to their present values using estimates of current market rates. Our exchangeable senior notes are also financial instruments, which are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as their fair value is estimated using observable inputs, based on the market value of the last trade at the end of the period. The following table displays the carrying values and fair values of our debt instruments as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 (in thousands):

(1)
The carrying values of the asset-backed securitizations exclude $48.4 million and $56.6 million of deferred financing costs as of December 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015, respectively.
(2)
The carrying value of the exchangeable senior notes, net is presented net of an unamortized discount.
(3)
The carrying value of the term loan facility excludes $3.3 million of deferred financing costs as of December 31, 2016. As our term loan facility bears interest at a floating rate based on an index plus a spread, which is a LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 1.70% to 2.30% or a base rate (generally determined according to a prime rate or federal funds rate) plus a margin ranging from 0.70% to 1.30%, management believes that the carrying value of the term loan facility as of December 31, 2016, reasonably approximates fair value.

Valuation of the preferred shares derivative liability considers scenarios in which the preferred shares would be redeemed or converted into Class A common shares by the Company and the subsequent payoffs under those scenarios. The valuation also considers certain variables such as the risk-free rate matching the assumed timing of either redemption or conversion, volatility of the underlying home price appreciation index, dividend payments, conversion rates, the assumed timing of either redemption or conversion and an assumed drift factor in home price appreciation across certain MSAs as outlined in the agreement.
